Please allow "refresh_value" for Zwave multi-level switches (i.e. fan entities), not just lights

Hi folks!

If possible, can you allow “refresh_value” option for Zwave fans, not just lights?

Since wall fan controls seem to report themselves as multi-level dimmers, but HA (correctly, and thank you for that!) makes them fan entities, it’s not possible to use “light” entity controls on them.

However, as my old Leviton VRF-01 does not support “switchmultilevel” version 4, it does not report the target value, but rather its old value (as per https://github.com/OpenZWave/open-zwave/issues/1321) . As a result, the UI reports the previous fan speed, not the new one.

As “refresh_value” is a workaround for this, please allow fan entities to use it as well. Thanks! :slight_smile:
